Sour Cream and Dill Rolls
Crusty outside. Inside is very soft, buttery and airy. Subtle dill and sour cream tartness.
I used this recipe during the CMC Exam for Day 7, Baking & Pastry. One of the requirements was to use a yeast leavened product with “Attention to the product consistency and detail of the finishing techniques, such as product shape, baking doneness, size consistency and marketability.”. The tying and forming of the rolls was a great way to demonstrate those skills and consistency.
